LBS in Canberra, ACT?
Hello all
I would like to buy a mountain bike in Canberra that is not too far from the suburb of Gordon. Gordon is at the extreme south of the ACT. Any ideas? I have a daughter who lives in Gordon and I would like to have a bike stationed there so that I can do a few rides when I visit. Joseph |

Joseph There isn't any bike store right near Gordon, but will be a few in Woden or Fyshwick area. I don't know of any bike store in Tuggeranong town centre which is nearest to Gordon. When you visit, have a look in the yellow pages and have a map, and you'll be able to see where you have to go to get a bike. I don't know which shop of maybe 20 in the ACT which offers the best service or price. A map of the ACT is online, so all can be searched with a PC..... probably you will have to talk to a shop person to get prices. Second hand bikes are being traded through the Canberra Times, Trading Post, and through clubs... Patrick Turner. |

Can't comment on their service 'cause I haven't used them. Bike Shed in Phillip is "relatively" close and they are pretty good. Check Cycling Canberra website and CORC website for second hand stuff.

Joseph I live in Gordon, and you're welcome to borrow this bike next time you're in town: http://www.smallsolar.org/BTH/budgetbike/ The nearest LBS is Onya Bike in Tuggeranong, and that's only about 6 or 7km away on a good bike path (depending on what part of Gordon your daughter lives in).

I see the BudgetBlade is now revenue positive. How about your weight and health? T. |
